1 Decomposition of 2-digit numbers

a) T says an addition (e.g. '20 + 8', '40 + 6', '85 + 5', '60 + 4'), P saysanswer. If problems, P works it out at class number line.

b) T says a 2-digit number (e.g. 16, 29, 75, 37, 60). P says a 2-partaddition about it (e.g. 16: 10 + 6, 8 + 8, 12 + 4, etc; 37: 30 + 7,35 + 2, 37 + 0, etc.)

5 min

2 Book 2, page 41

Q.1 Who can tell me something about the additions? (4 columns,with 9 additions each. BB: 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 4 times 9 = 36).

In each column, 1, 2, 3, . . ., 8, 9 are added to the same 2-digitnumber; all the 2-digit numbers have whole tens + 1 unit.)

Deal with one part at a time. Let's see who can finish themfirst with all correct! (Allow 1 minute per column.) Ps mayuse number lines. Ps sit up with arms folded when finished.

Review orally round the class. Mistakes corrected at classnumber line.

13 min

3 Book 2, page 41

Q.2 Read: Fill in the missing numbers.

a) What do you notice about the additions in the first row?(4 is added each time. Numbers to which 4 is added have 5as units digit.)

T asks 3 Ps to come out to BB to complete the additions.Class agrees/disagrees. What do you notice about theanswers? (All have 9 as units digit, tens digit does not change)

Who can think of another addition which is similar?

Let's see if you can do part b) and c) without any help!

Review at BB with whole class. Mistakes corrected at classnumber line.

5 Table and rule

Study this table carefully and think what the rule might be.

A, what do you think the rule is? (Can explain using words only.)Who agrees? Let's check using the values in the 2 complete columns.(12 + 1 = 13, 22 + 2 = 24) B, come and write the rule on the BB.(e.g. a + b = c) Let's use this rule to complete the table.

Ps come out to BB one at a time to fill in the missing numbers. Classagrees/disagrees. (If problems, Ps show on number line.)

Who can come and write the rule in a different way? Who agrees?Let's check it is correct. Who thinks something else? etc.

What do you notice about the rows? (Number in row b is the 1st digitof the 2-digit number in row a)

N.B. Last column is an extension.

6 Book 2, page 41, Q.3

Read: Which is more? How many more?Write in the correct signs and numbers.

a) Ps come out in pairs to point to numbers on number line. P whopoints to the smaller number writes the missing sign (a big <) in thebox. The other P writes in how many more his number is.

Each of the pair reads the inequality starting from his own number(from left to right or from right to left).

b) and c) done as individual work if T thinks Ps understand. Deal withone part at a time. Review at BB with the whole class.

Who noticed something about the inequalities? (In the 1st row, RHnumber is always 3 more; in the 2nd row, RH number is always 4 more.)

30 min

7 Book 2, page 51

Q.4 Read: Fill in the missing numbers.

Does anyone notice anything about the subtractions?

(1st row: 4 is subtracted each time from numbers which allhave 7 as units digit.; 2nd row: 2 is subtracted each time fromnumbers which all have 5 as units digit; 3rd row: 6 is subtractedeach time from numbers which all have 8 as units digit.)

Let's see how quickly you can do them! You may use yournumber lines to help you. Review orally with whole class.Deal with one row at a time. Show on class number line.

Elicit that only the units digit changes in each case.

35 min

8 Additions

Let's calculate these sums. Try to find a connection between them

T writes (and reads out) additions on BB and Ps copy down in Ex.Bks, writing in the answer too. Deal with one row at a time.

BB: 40 + 8 = 41 + 8 = 42 + 8 =

40 + 18 = 41 + 18 = 42 + 18 =

40 + 58 = 41 + 58 = 42 + 58 =

Review with whole class. 3 Ps per row come out to BB to fill inanswers. Class agrees/disagrees. If problems, show on number line.

Who can tell us how some additions can help with others? e.g.

Rows 1 + 8 = 9, so 41 + 8 = 40 + (1 + 8) = 40 + 9 = 49;

41 + 8 > 40 + 8

42 + 18: 40 + 10 = 50, 2 + 8 = 10, so 42 + 18 = 50 + 10 = 60

Columns 40 + 18 > 40 + 8

40 min

9 Problem

Who can come and show us how to work out the answer to this problem?

I have20 red books and 30 blue books. I want to give a book to eachof the 57 children in Year 2. How many more books are needed?

X, come and show us how you would do it. Who agrees/disagrees?

Answer: 7 more books are needed.

45 min

Whole class activity

Discussion on plan:BB: 20 + 30 + = 57

or 20 + 30 = 5057 – 50 = 7

Q.1 Read: Complete the table.

Look carefully at the table. A, what do you think the rule is?(Add 7 to numbers in the top row.) Who agrees? Who thinkssomething else?

Let's see how quickly you can complete the table!

Review at BB with whole class. Ps come out one after anotherto write in number and T writes addition for each column on BB.

What do you notice about the columns? (13 columns; first3 columns are whole tens, second (third, fourth) group of3 columns have same tens digit and increasing by 1; lastcolumn is only one with 3-digit numbers)

12 min

Q.3 Read: Fill in the sums.

What do you notice about the additions in each row? (All startwith the same 1-digit number, 2-digit numbers added have thesame units digit.)

Let's see how quickly you can do them! Deal with one part at atime. Review orally round the whole class. Mistakes corrected.

Discuss method of solution. Elicit that the first sum helps tosolve the other two sums in the row. Demonstrate on BB.(Add units to units and then add tens.)

T writes on BB: 14 + 62 = ? 34 + 12 = ?

How could we solve them? B, what do you think? Who agrees?(Add units to units and then add tens to tens) Let's check..

a) Let's all read the first equation. (T points to 55 – = 50 on BB)

'Fifty-five minus something is equal to fifty'. How many have beentaken away from 55 to get 50? C, come and write in the missingnumber. (5) Is C correct? Who thinks something else? C, explainto us how you worked it out. ( e.g. 55 is equal to 50 + something)

Show us on the class number line. Elicit that 5 units have beensubtracted from the units digit but the tens digit stays the same.

Deal with 43 – = 40 in a similar way.

Let's all read this equation. (T points to – 7 = 90)

'Something minus seven is equal to ninety'. What number have wetaken 7 away from to get 90?

D, come and write in the missing number. (97) Who agrees?D, explain to us how you worked it out. (e.g. something is 7 morethan 90, or 90 + 7 = something) Show us on the class number line.

Elicit that only the units digit has had 7 subtracted, the tens digit staysthe same.

Deal with – 2 = 50 in a similar way.

b) Continue in a similar way to part a) . (Or done as individual work,reviewed at BB with whole class.)

35 min

7 Book 2, page 42, Q.5

It would help if each P was given a photocopy of the number grid onpage 48 (from copy master)

Deal with one part at a time. T (or P) reads each question and Ps fillin missing numbers.

Ps show their answers with number cards on command. Let's check.

Ps say the numbers one after the other around the class and T keepstally on BB. Class shouts 'No' if P says wrong number. Why?

Solutions:

a) 45 (starting at 11, finishing at 99: 5 numbers (_1, _3, _5, _7 _9) in each of 9 tens: 5 times 9 = 45)

b) 25 (5 numbers in each of 5 tens: 5 times 5 = 25)

c) 25 (5 numbers in each of 5 tens: 5 times 5 = 25)

d) 11 (10 whole tens + '0') e) 30 (0 to 29) d) 71 (30 to 100)

Repeat with different Ps for 23 + 4 = 27, 43 + 4 = 47. What doyou notice? (The units are the same in each: 3 + 4 = 7, only thetens are different.)

Who can think of other additions which are similar?

b) As for a), but Ps starting on 7 and jumping 4 to the left (i.e.subtractions) Repeat for 27 – 4 = 23, 47 – 4 = 43.

Who can think of other subtractions which are similar?

No, because both sides of an '=' sign should be equal and 43 + 4does not equal 47 – 7. How could we make it correct?(Split it up into 43 + 4 = 43, 47 – 7 = 40, etc.)

B, come and point to 7 again This time draw a jump to the rightbelow the number line from 7 to '10'. (T draws arrow down to '10')How many units have you jumped? (3) Who agrees? (T writes'+3' beside 2nd arrow. Now draw a jump from 10 to 15. (T draws3rd arrow back up to 15. How many units did you jump? (5)Who agrees? (T writes '+5' beside 3rd arrow.)

Why has A made 1 jump and B 2 jumps but they have both landedon 15? (Because adding 8 is the same as adding 5 and then 3.)

b) Repeat as above. Who notices something similar to part a)?(Numbers added are the same, but start and end numbers are 10 more.)

c) and d) As a) and b) but this time jumping to the left along the numberline, i.e. subtracting. (Subtracting 8 is the same as subtracting 5, then 3.)

Now let's do the RHS. B, come and mark the number which isequal to 65 – 4. (61) Is B correct? B, write it above the subtraction.

Let's read out the inequality again, starting from the triangle: 'thetriangle is less than sixty-nine and more than sixty-one'.

C, come and point to these two numbers and read the numbers thatthe triangle could be. Who agrees? Who thinks something else?Let's write them down opposite the triangle.

1 Finding the rule

Put your hand up when you have worked out the rule I am using.

T asks Ps for a number, e.g. '50'', T says '66'; P says '13', T says '29',etc. until a P puts hand up. T checks that P knows rule by saying anumber and P must say matching number using the rule (but withouttelling the rule to rest of class). Continue until most of class haveworked it out. (In each pair: 2nd number is 16 more than 1st number,i.e. + 16). Repeat for other rules if Ps solve it quickly.

E: More than 1 metre

1 Measuring length with steps

Let's measure the length of the classroom. How many steps long is it?

T asks 2 different Ps to count the number of steps they take from onewall to the opposite one and writes it on the BB. T does the same.

BB: e.g. Johnny: 10 steps < length < 11 steps

Sue: 11 steps < length < 12 steps

Teacher: 6 steps < length < 7 steps

Why are the number of steps different? Who is correct? Why is thenumber of T's steps less than Sue's? (More steps if step is smaller,fewer steps if step is larger.) Is this a good way to measure length?(No, because everyone has a different length of step, so we need ameasure which will always be the same.) (BB: standard units)

Who can tell me a standard unit to measure length?

6 min

2 Measuring length with m and cmT has various measuring instruments on table at front of class.Ps come out to choose the ones which could be used to measure length.

Let's measure the classroom with the metre stick. (Two Ps with T's help)

BB: e.g. 6 metres < length < 7 metres

Repeat using measuring tape (cm).

BB: e.g. 5 m 30 cm < length < 5 m 31 cm

What is different about the measuring tape compared with the metrestick? (flexible; divided into smaller units (cm) so more accurate; all inone length, so again more accurate, etc.)

Who knows how many cm are in 1 metre? Let's check. Two Ps measuremetre stick with measuring tape. T writes it on BB, Ps in Ex. Bks.

3 Measuring with cm

Ps choose something (small) to measure with rulers (in cm) and writemeasurement in their Ex. Bks (as above). T reminds Ps how to userulers accurately (with the 'tick' for 'zero' on the edge of what they aremeasuring and the ruler kept straight).

e.g. length/width of their books, desk, pencils, plastic boxes, rods,tubes, etc.

a) If both pieces were the shorter length, then the total lengthwould be 10 cm – 2 cm = 8 cm, and each piece would behalf of 8 cm = 4 cm (shorter piece)

b) If both pieces were the longer length, then the total lengthwould be 10 cm + 2 cm = 12 cm and each piece would behalf of 12 cm = 6 cm (longer piece)

c) If both pieces were the same length, they would each be halfof 10 cm = 5 cm. Half of the difference between them is1 cm, so the shorter piece will be 1 cm less (4 cm) and thelonger piece will be 1 cm more (6 cm).

d) List all the addition facts for 10 and choose the one wherethe two numbers have a difference of 2: 1 + 9, 2 + 8, 3 + 7,4 + 6, 5 + 5. 6 + 4, 7 + 3, 8 + 2, 9 + 1

T asks several Ps for their estimations but does not agree ordisagree with them. Ps write what they think in the table intheir books (including the units).

Ps then measure the line accurately and write length in table.

P finished first writes his/her measurements in table on BB.

Once all the lines have been estimated/measured, Ps come outto fill in the differences in the table, writing subtractions on BB.Class agrees/disagrees.

2 Cubes and cuboids

T has various items on table at front of class, some of which are cuboids.(bricks, dice, plastic cups, ornaments, empty boxes, packets, tins,triangles, balls, etc). (Ps could have collected them from home.)

T holds up, e.g. a brick. Who can come and find a shape which lookslike this? Who can find another one? (T lays them out at front of table.)What can you say about these shapes? (6 flat (plane) sides (faces);opposite faces equal; faces are rectangles or squares; straight edges;square corners) These shapes are all called cuboids. (BB)

T holds up various items and asks, 'Is this a cuboid?' Ps shout 'yes' or 'no'

Is this a cuboid? (T holds up a cube). 'Yes'. Who knows what it iscalled? What is special about it? (All 6 faces are equal sized squares.)

Talk abut squares (all 4 sides equal and square corners) being specialQuadrilaterals and rectangles (opposite sides equal and squarecorners) being special quadrilaterals (4 sides, not necessarily equal),so a square is also a rectangle and a quadrilateral.

T gives each P one of the cuboids (or Ps bring in own boxes/packets)and asks them to stand different faces on a page in their Ex. Bks. andto draw round them to show what they would look like from above(the front, the side). Ps label their drawings, e.g. 'top', 'front', 'side'

Where would be easiest to start? (1st row as all the numbers are the same.) How many numbers are in the row? (10) So what number added to itself 10 times equals 100? (10) Let's check on the number line. T (or P) writes '10' in every yellow rectangle.

Where would be next easiest to work out? (Last column, as only one unknown number.) All the 7 '10's added together equal 70, so what must the green rectangle equal? ( 100 – 70 = 30) T (or P) writes '30' in every green rectangle.

3 Measuring capacity

T revises meaning of capacity (how much liquid something can hold).

. T has 2 different sized glasses, 2 equal sized jugs (e.g. 500 ml) and abucket of water at front of class. T checks that each jug holds the same.

a) A and B come out to choose a glass and fill their jug with water.Another 2 Ps keep a tally on BB of the number of glasses needed.How many glasses did A use? How many glasses did B use?Who had the smallest glass? Who filled the jug with more glassesof water?

Discuss glasses as being non-standard measures (as not all glasses thesame size). What is a standard unit for measuring capacity? (litre)

b) T holds up a 1 litre jug and a 1 centilitre measuring spoon (e.g.spoon use when taking medicine). T (or Ps in relay) fills the litrejug with 1 cl spoonfuls of water while class keeps count. (100)T writes on BB and Ps in Ex.Bks.

7 Book 2, page 62, Q.3

Read: How many 40 cl glasses can be filled from a jug holding 1 litre60 cl of lemonade?

How could we solve this? Ask several Ps what they think. e.g.

• use real jug and glasses and count the number of glassesthat can be filled;

• change 1 litre 60 cl to cl (160 cl) and count in 40's untilyou reach 160: 40 + 40 + 40 + 40 = 160);

• start with 160 cl and see how many times 40 cl can be takeaway: 160 – 40 = 120, 120 – 40 = 80, 80 – 40 = 40, 40 – 40 = 0

Ps can choose own method to do in their books.Answer: 4 glasses can be filled.

Calculations:a) 4 litres 60 + 70 cl = 4 litres 60 + 40 cl + 30 cl = 5 litres 30 cl

b) 3 litres 50 cl – 90 cl = 3 litres 50 cl – 50 cl – 40 cl= 3 litres – 40 cl = 2 litres 60 cl

Show me the answer . . . now! (1 litre 80 cl)

X, come and show us how you did it. Who agrees? Who did itanother way? etc.
